Ten Signs of Narcissistic Rage

[@Cubic5]

That "10 minutes later and acting as if nothing had happened" part has driven me crazy my entire life.

[@lenebrantley221]

[@Victoria-c4n]

- Yes, they expect you to pretend it never happened.

[@rturney6376]

Yes 🙌

[@JulianRedwood]

Yes, from anger, yelling, name calling and being told how terrible I am, to extra kisses, hugs, cuddles and "I love you so much" out of nowhere - kept me in a state of confusion and felt so unsure about where i stood in the relationship. I always assumed the smothering with love, was her way of apologizing without saying sorry.

[@thescapegoatclub]

The delayed rage is a killer…. You just never feel safe because you can be punished for anything at any time 😢

[@dahliafiend]

Shed often have a smile on her face kike when she sesdribed an ex lover being sooo much bigher than me was so creepy and casually brought up. I often felt ill but i didnt know why. My therapist doesn’t know what hoovering is or devaluing. I wish i had the wereithal to record but the love bomb and constant sex keot me off guard I lived alone with her. No friends she had countless friends many male. Even now the loneliness and injustice has made life seem surreal. As a man it’s just assumed shes telling the truth and im a bitter abuser.

[@chicane7752]

One of the narcissists I knew seemed to take delight in the unusual ways he’d find to punish, making sure it was just personal enough that I knew what was happening but to other people it was “just an accident/mistake”. That way I couldn’t point out what was going on without seeming overly sensitive. So I didn’t.

[@MoPoppins]

Definitely frustrating that narcs are so CALCULATED in their behavior, in order to always elicit this outcome…but I hope you’re able to zoom out from these situations & see that it’s pretty pathetic how THIS is how they invest into themselves to experience JOY, of all things! 😂 Leverage their weakness-once you understand the game, YOU have the upper hand.

So it's like stepping on a landmine that you didn't know was there. What sane person thinks beforehand that someone is going to exaggeratedly take something as a huge affront and blow to their ego that they have to now punish you, plot against you, overtly or covertly, All narcs should be locked up with sociopaths and psychopaths.

[@fooled_twice4668]

thank you for great overview. i remember when my ex-boyfriend had his first "narc rage" on me- it's incredible how they make you feel like it was YOUR fault- and i remember apologizing to him later, not the other way around! that's when they "know" they have you, and probably devalue you even more then, having passed the test that you withstand that abuse... they make sure that there will be more coming! i'm so glad to have learned about it, now. if i ever meet someone who displays this again, it will be the LAST time i see them, and NO APOLOGIES from me about it, ever! what a sucker i was!

[@MoPoppins]

Don’t be too hard on yourself-the empathic won’t know that this is a “thing,” until initiated.

[@Datb2]

Omg I apologized too! I feel so silly for that and if I could take anything back it would be that! Cut them offf and never look back!

[@Nonameforyoudangit]

You ultimately win because you got wise to what how this dude was behaving. You may meet someone like him again - or a covert version - but you know your worth. I communicated to a covert narcissist dude I 'dated' off and on that whatever we were doing wasn't working for me (Mr. Noncommittal) and wished him well. He had a temper tantrum over text and maligned me as best he could. At that point I didn't feel as bad as much as I was relieved - his nonsense confirmed for me that I made the correct decision. It gets easier. Sometimes you even may find yourself bemused by the wackiness.

[@Cornusnuttallii]

@@Nonameforyoudangit Yes, same with my ex-husband. He had me thinking I was crazy. He would do things without telling me, then say he told me, but I didn't have such problem with anybody else in my life. Even up to the point that I told him I wanted to get a separation for awhile, I was second-guessing myself. Then it started. He's doing life without parole.

[@pizzakrydder2515]

This rage can also result in dangerous violence so if you are in a close relationship with someone who shows this behavior, take it as a huge red flag!

[@theicemaiden5816]

The narcissist who destroyed my life used to abuse his position to punish me. He used to create negative situations when he didn't get what he wanted and then use the system to punish me for wrongs I never committed. He used to speak over me whenever I got too close to the truth and everything just ended in me giving up my standpoint just to get out of the room he used to essentially hold me hostage in until he got his own way. His own way usually resulted in my dignity on the floor and me going through hell. Then the smear campaign blew up and I couldn't take any more of the revenge mentality. In the end I had no one, not even myself.

@@MoPoppins I didn't have a choice as the aim was to force me out of my job. The only choice I had was to escape before they did the discard. Every job I go into now, I just don't care.

[@elletuppen4844]

This bundle of character traits ends up being a lethal cocktail against any form of resolution about any issue, big or small. When on the receiving end of this extreme behaviour ~ mostly rage coupled with gaslighting ~ one is first left with swirling emotional confusion and cognitive dissonance. Apart from the emotional and mental strain and challenge, each out of the blue attack leaves me with such deep panic in the form of physical fear and the adrenal instinct is to flee ~ so flight fright and freeze in one. This seems to just augment the narcissistic behaviour as it provides their supply and strangely justifies their actions to themselves. Not engaging is always recommended but one’s silence is self suffocating as the natural instinct is to want to discuss and even negotiate. Dealing with this parent for decades left me with such a warped perspective that if it wasn’t for wonderful instruction and discussion like this, I would not be able to have better perspective or cope as well as I do. Thank you.

[@ellenfarmer3498]

That is what I regret, not discussing with Mom over the decades, her bizarre, raging meltdowns, I guess us kids just got used to letting Dad handle it, as she was the love of his life, the kids were secondary. With a sister I tried to do better, I confronted ,outed her NPD, after decades of confusion over her manipulations, abusive rage attacks, it didn't help, it is hopeless with these types.

The first time I said No and stuck to it with my mum for one of her demands the rage we saw was off the scale. She’s 85yr old and the things she was saying with the venom and anger was shocking, and upsetting. “I can’t believe a son of mine is treating me like this”, “I gave birth to you”, “I am so upset you are treating me this way, why are you doing this”? She’s done it a few times since too when I’ve put a boundary in that doesn’t meet her demands, but now I am expecting it although it’s still upsetting, exhausting and confusing. And yes, like a switch she can be like nothing ever happened & no apology,

Their childish response to open discussion

[@mysticallyme]

My ex used to threaten killing himself, and after years of his abuse and utter contempt for anyone and everything i got up the nerve to be mean back. I told him to go do it, that we, his family would be better off. His response was going out to the garage to get a steel rod and come back to the weight bench outside the office window where we were, and beat the thing with his rage. The neighbour's father overheard this and came to the fence to ask if things were okay. I told him it has just been my husband having a temper tantrum. He didn't win that day. I did leave with a police escort eventually, and have never looked back! It's been 1.5 years and I'm in therapy, the idea of another relationship has me in panic. Am determined to learn all about this to avoid other disastrous relationships from forming, this includes friendships in general, when I most recently got DARVO'd when I put up some boundaries about what was acceptable from her and what wasn't. Thank you Darren, I'm so glad I found your work! Your DARVO video put so much together for me. 🍀

Yep, that's pretty much my partner the last week, have just discovered (more so I have accepted I guess) the fact she's a narcissist. Have suspected it for years, but still was 'under the spell', not anymore now. She's livid, has been stonewalling me for a week (for something she has done of course and I nearly crucified her for, I just had enough, had come to the end of my ability to take her punches). Not feeding her anymore and she's running all over the place to get emotions from others, the kids, others outside the house etc. is not hanging out with me, something she always used to do. She even left for a hotel in another city with a friend yesterday, never told me of course, the kids told me she was gone (again). The escalations are just ridiculous and I'm expecting many more to come. Seeing professional help for me very soon finding out various. With all this craziness I'm quite content she's not in the house to wreak havoc, I sleep much better and don't feel stressed at all, feels like I've partially switched off from hers well. When the moment comes that we will talk I 100% want professional help, if she's not going for it I'm out, 22 years marriage down the drain. If that happens I know divorce isn't down to me, I have tried, these people cannot be changed without therapy and even then.............

[@imnoel8214]

I've seen an "eye flash" in several acquaintances who I've pegged as narcissistic. You'll say something in casual conversation that they didn't suggest first, or something you know that they didn't, or maybe you'll be doing something like moving furniture that reveals how you've been doing strength training. They will take offense, but because there is an audience, or because they know blowing up is not a good look, they will reign in their outburst. But just for a moment, their eyes widen and their pupils dilate.

It’s soul deadening walking on eggshells. Living under the shadow of a volcano. The frustrating thing is that there was no actual trigger for the tantrums, they could happened on a vacation, a waitress pouring a cup of coffee at the wrong time. She, suddenly got up from the table and said, “I’m leaving!” She went to our room and packed her bag crying and upset. (I did talk her out of it.) The point is, I has zero control over these tantrums, I tried to never upset her, but she could spontaneously get angry over literally nothing. It wears on you, physically and mentally. She, had so many wonderful qualities, yet flawed in such a distractive way.

Could theft or denying someone access to their rightful property be an indicator of narcissistic rage? The narc would have to be close enough to you to have access to your belongings, maybe even secretly copying keys to gain access to your home whilst your out. once the heist is complete their alibi- you can’t prove it was me! But they’re laughing at you on the inside.

That's not rage. That's just violating personal boundaries (to the extent of illegal activity it sounds like), gaslighting and manipulation.

We have noticed with my Dad that his brain will literally rewrite events in his memory in order to protect the belief that he is perfect and does no wrong. For example, when I was ill he didn’t take me to the hospital. After about 5 days my Mum got a family friend to take me to the hospital where we were told I could have died if it had been left longer. His memory of that whole thing is that he took me to the hospital just in the right time. After he loses an argument, he will later tell the story from the opposing point of view, and he seems to genuinely believe the whole conversation completely differently.

I do feel however that I am a person that cannot stand unfairness…not only toward me as a person but unfairness towards andinnocent group of people or OTHER person. How should one react to these situations without carrying the narcissistic label. Is sticking up for the underdogs a case of narcissism? What if you give a person a chance to correct their behaviour because they show signs of bullying and general bad behaviour…would correcting that person at any means show a tendency to narcissism?

@@tammyfitzgerald5336 narcissist rage comes from a sense of entitlement, manic rage comes from a mood disorder.

[@Жестокий-Новый-Мир]

I never realized about this rage.... My biggest trouble of my life is the anger of my mother. She was angry as devil and was beating us (me and brother) like we Hitlers. Now i see what it is. Dad was a sailor man and he was more absent than present at home. When he was absent she could do with us whatever she wanted. My life began from beatings by my mother. That was that rage. I clearly believe it is demonic. No normal woman can hate their children like that. And for all other people she was a holy angel and she was telling to others lies about my dad and in fact he is an angel.

Thank you.

[@sonderman8079]

First time I was the subject of my wife's rage for no actual reason, but something I had done a few years back, it made me totally confused. Now, after 24 years of marriage and many such episodes, I have been the subject of total silent treatment (not a single word) for 4 years. Planning to get out soon as my son is just 18.

You might be dealing with a hormonal shift on her end due to menopause. Symptoms can include untoward mood changes.

[@Mkr7942]

I think they can apologize, even if it is to make themselves look better.

[@michelevanlimburgh-lu9wc]

Sometimes the anger can come out in a single word as a result of when the narcissist has been discovered. True, the victim is a vulnerable target.

[@toddlippincott2070]

my ex had ALL 10 SIGNS... unbelievable

[@Mina-vr1kw]

The ex just spent time for domestic violence aggravated assault-simple assault-terrorist threat- we are divorced so this was his new supply- sad. In the back of one’s mind you think could I have done better? Not with this disorder!!!!

[@yellowsaffron7668]

My nightmare. My neighbour who has physically and mentally abused me. They really are the devil. Evil beings.

[@justChrisjones]

My narcissists seem to be more callculated. Unless they were drunk.

[@realitywinner7582]

making out the victim has destroyed their lives .

[@randy_cbc8811]

The Bible calls such inordinate rage, "fool's wrath", that is way, WAY out of proportion to the offense: "A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both" - Proverbs 27:3 Stone is heavy and the sand weighty, But a fool’s [unreasonable] wrath is heavier and more burdensome than both of them. (Amplified Bible)

When he told me about the 2000 women I ran lol

[@svitanok3891]

It is healthier to say about our feelings rather than making statements about things as if the statements were the only truth on earth. imho

[@Myjesus-1]

Psalm 64 Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy. Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers. They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows. They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear. They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, "Who will see it?" They plot injustice and say, "We have devised a perfect plan!" Surely the human mind and heart are cunning. But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down. He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn. All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done. The righteous will rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him; all the upright in heart will glory in him!

[@jen2574]

I wonder if a narcissist would ever have the self-knowledge to see this kind of video and say "that sounds like me!" I wonder what kind of reaction that any kind of an inkling of that would bring on.

[@rudy2360]

I think that they do - but it is too threatening to acknowledge/confront. I believe life is 'grey' and it is difficult for all of us to confront out own demons - I see this in myself. I have found however, in a ridiculous way, that the rageful person projected this behavior on to me. This I know is not true as I am more of a fawner. It's just too much for someone to admit they are out of control and rageful as this triggers their abandonment issue. Not my circus - not my monkeys. I do not have, not am I or anyone else, required to endorse this rageful behavior because they cannot control it. Fortunately, I am not married to this person.

[@cassiebennet4262]

Most of them are incapable of self awareness. The very few who start to understand their disorder are plagued with toxic shame about it or they embrace it and love being nasty.

[@fairygurl9269]

Can Have Something Slipped in Your Drink then Told You Drank too Much and Did Terribly Shameful things While Out of It.. only to Find Out Later it was Not True by others Account and or Surveillance Footage

[@suzannechurcher1745]

One small upset, perceived injustice and the whole pack of cards cones down.

[@jeffreyjackson5229]

No apology. Correct.

[@gingerspeidel-ys6et]

My Dad would hit his children because the tv was too loud. Then he sit down and read the paper whistling and tapping his foot, happy as can be.

[@puntvandekomma9498]

A lot of people see what they would like to see, especially in times likes this where people who act like victims will be petted. Most of the comments (if not all) are from people who feel like a victim....A lot of people also forget to judge themselfes. You mean well, it is informative and the knowledge is usefull......But iam Pretty sure a lot of people like to see their ex as a narcist so they don't have to blame themselfes....pretty sure most of these people are wrong with their judgement. Maybe i am a narcist yet if i cry with you guys i could be the dark empath.....Or maybe i am just hungry to give me a rage..... Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur....

[@pollytheparrot8929]

Yea, I can see that in my father.. He's got the narcissistic rage.. Once I just accidentally switched off the light switch, while he was doing something, he told me irritatingly to not off the light.. I didn't like the tone. So I just told him just that not to talk like that to me. For that, he got sooo angry and hyper, started talking shit like... Wat do u want me to do?? Hold ur legs!! U please leave the house and see things for urself! And telling mom.. If we had to depend on us financially, wat would have happened!! I was shocked 😲🙄.. Another time.. I wanted to talk to my mom,confront her with things.. He comes out of nowhere, comes in between.. Telling me not to talk to her, telling her health is not ok as an excuse.. I told him not to come in between us while I'm talking to her! Then he says d same thing, go ur way ie get of the house den suddenly gets angry, barges towards me... Pushes me, physically assaulted me..i was shocked jilted with this behavior!!! Dn mom comes in between takes him away from my room..i told him, how dare u touch me!? I just locked the door. I was sooo scared😔😞

[@KY-jb4vd]

this is a lot like the dynamics with my husband, sadly. esp with our oldest son. the same kind of stuff.. short temper, frustration, aggression at the drop of a hat, threats to kick out often and holding money over all of our heads. I'm sorry we have both had these kinds of experiences!!

[@rosettesionne9139]

Don't forget that most of the time they put the blame on their victims so that it is the victim who feel guilty and not them.

[@charmee4045]

I saw it once, demonic is the word that best describes it.........felt I was in the presence of pure evil and I was.
